I got this recipe from my DMIL in TX, 40 yrs ago.
7 Layer Pea Salad
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Layer in an 8 x 8" pan or 9 x 13" if making for a crowd. The amounts are up to you but each layer should cover the one under it. Layer in the order given....top ingredient will be on the bottom.
Lettuce, chopped
Celery, sliced
Onion, sliced
1T sugar
Frozen peas, thawed
Mayo sprinkled with sugar
Sharp cheese, shredded
Bacon Bits
You might need to pack it down as you go. Forget about it on the Mayo level. Cover with plastic or foil and refrigerate at least 8 hours. This is so surprising.
